Hey, everyone starts somewhere, and look at it this way.. you made it further than anyone that just decided not to try.
I don't use rockwool when it comes to DWC/RDWC. A bag of cheap lava rock from home depot or the like, break it up with a hammer, fit it into your net pot, you're golden. As long as you rinse it pretty good anyway, otherwise your water will be red for a long time, and it won't be easy on your pump either. I don't use rockwool for the plain fact it isn't needed, and at worst can lead to root rot(the reason I don't use it). As long as you have water splashing onto the hydroton/lava rock/whatever you decide to use will wick it up to the plant, and has the added bonus of there always being o2 available.
I prefer to use the tough totes from home depot/lowes as opposed to 5 gallon buckets.

I also add just a dab of this stuff. It's basically Hydrogard.. But countless times more concentrated, and more importantly.. countless times cheaper. I don't know if it will cure your root problem, but it will certainly help keep them at bay and slow down what you do have going on.
Is the lettuce planted in a rock wool cube or something that can hold a lot of moisture? Zooming in on the photo there looks to be something slimy and green. Whatever that is it's most likely your problem.
Also, if you did use some kind of rock wool, I've found that i get better results not having them in an eb and flow setup. Imo it's better to have the plant just go naked roots in expanded clay. You want them to get oxygen! If you want a preventative beneficial bacteria that will out compete the bad bacteria and protect your roots I recommend southern ag garden friendly fungicide.

Super cheap and you only literally need a few ml in 40 to 50gallon reservoir. Haven't had root issues since.
Adding hydroguard to the mix would probably solve your problem. Or you can get this, its the same bacteria in a more concentrated form.
I had a similar issue and realized I plugged my air pump into the timer power strip! I couldn't tell for a couple of days due to there being no problem with the lights on but i noticed it was suspiciously quiet walking by one day. If not this is a concentrated form of hydroguard. Same type of bacillus but higher percentage. Also enzymes like canna or hygrozyme. I've heard the powdered stuff for ponds works well too.
I can't get hydroguard in my country but I found this alternative that is sooo much more concentrated and uses the same bacteria. I had to smuggle it across International borders, but I have enough to last me forever...
